...in onlinegrocery shopping? How does onlinegrocery shopping compare with traditional shopping in terms of behavioral effort?
The behaviors involved in onlinegrocery shopping are information contact, funds access, and transaction. The information contact “…occurs when consumers come into contact with information, either intentionally or accidentally, about products, stores, or brands…” (J. Paul Peter, 2010, p. 195) Funds access or money “…is the primary medium of consumer exchange. The consumer must access this medium in one form or another before an exchange can occur…” (J. Paul Peter, 2010, p. 198) I do not believe that the store contact or the product contact is applicable here since the purchases are being made online and not in a brick and mortar store which would allow the customer to see, touch, and feel the items they wish to purchase. The behavioral efforts found in an onlinegrocery shopping can be described as in an emergency case only. Online shopping is used when the customer does not have enough time to get into the supermarket to shop. Yet the success of Pea Pod relies on these types of customers for the success of their continued business. The behaviors of traditional shopping are information contact, funds access, store contact, product contact, and transaction. What both the online and traditional...

...How Online Marketing could Provide Competitive Advantages in the Grocery Retailing Industry
“With household internet access continuing to increase, the customer base for onlinegrocery shopping is widening, while other technological innovations such as the advent of smart phones is further benefiting the market” (Source: “Global Market Review of OnlineGrocery Retailing” report available at www.MarketResearch.com).
The grocery retailing industry has many opportunities inherent in it for online marketing, and the competitive advantages that it would provide. While local brick-and-mortar storefronts will always be necessary - due to the perishable nature of many items, the bulk and expense of shipping groceries and the occasional need to purchase something immediately – there are ways in which the internet can be leveraged to add to consumer convenience and increased profits.
Providing online shopping is a possibility for grocery retailers. It’s very different than dry-goods retailers such as books, music, shoes and apparel – or services being marketing such as travel. “To date, sales of food and drinks over the internet have yet to make the same impact observed in other parts of the consumer goods industry, most notably books, clothing and electronic items such as computer equipment” (Source: “Global...

1. What are the reasons you think WebVan failed?
There are many reasons why Webvan failed so spectacularly but I’m going to focus on Webvan’s management team and its technology as the panicle reasons for their spectacular failure. To the outside observer, the management team is comprised of the ultimate all-star high caliber players. Webvan’s executive team has extensive executive management experience and backgrounds that goes back to Anderson Consulting, Marriott, GE, MCI Worldcom, FedEx, Oracle, Goldman Sachs, Border Books, etc. They seemed to be the best and brightest in their field, yet collectively, their “bigger is always better” mentality, combined with a plainly optimistic forecast drove Webvan to bankruptcy. This all-star team figured they had the ultimate solution to the problem that everyone was looking to solve; they call it “to deliver the last mile of e-commerce.” They were so good that they were able to convince investors to put money into Webvan. In 1999, Webvan raised $120M in funding and raised another $275M by selling a stake in Goldman Sachs, Softbank, and Sequoia Capital. In it’s IPO, it raised another $400M and at one point in time, Webvan had market capitalization of $15B.

...According to the article entitled OnlineGrocery Shopping: Ripe Timing for Resurgence, Maya Swedowsky report that the online shopping for groceries in United States of America is reborn and increasing as the consumers’ behaviour is changing towards online tools to fill in their grocery bags and have been influenced by four factors, which are convenience, usage of broadband, Generation Y, and customization of products. This can be proven by the number of grocers which has increased more than 13 times since 2001, where US population is nearly doubled during that period. The purpose of the article is to let the target audience of the article, which is people who work in the food industry (food manufacturers and food companies) know that the current trend of consumers is going for groceries’ online shopping. The finding of the article is very good since it will help food companies or manufacturers to get an idea and come out with their own web sites and offer online shopping to the customers in order to keep up the trend with their target market. Hence, they are able to compete with other companies who are already offering online shopping to the consumers.
Moreover, Swedowsky also stated that “onlinegrocery could become a catch-all of convenience for the food, beverage and personal categories”. It is true...

ABSTRACT
This case study involves three retailers that engaged in alternative approaches to eGrocer strategy formulation. The primary goals were to assess the relationship between a company’s business model(s) and its performance in the onlinegrocery channel and to determine if there were other company and/or market related factors that could account for company performance. The first company is BigBasket currently present in Mumbai, Hyderabad and Bangalore. The other one is Aaramshop which is a website that operates in National Capital Region of India and offers FMCG and CPG goods and the last one is Salt n Soap, OnlineGrocery Store in Kolkata operating out of Kolkata. First, we seek to achieve insight into how uptake of Internet-based eGrocer relates to management orientation and find relationships between the uptake of Internet-based eGrocer and entrepreneurial orientation, competitive intensity, and IT maturity.

...Case 1 (C & C Grocery)
The mission statement for C & C Grocery is to provide an abundance of quality meats, produce and dry goods to customers at a convenient location for the most reasonable prices around with a smile and “a satisfied customer is a happy customer” attitude. This statement would afford the brothers the chance to branch out to other communities and open more stores and ensure they are as successful as the original store. By having over 200 stores by 1997 and with the employees adopting Doug’s infectious attitude it prove to be a successful combination for the brothers.
1) The original structure of C & C Grocery is excellent for one to five stores. The original structure of the C & C Grocery stores has caused a disconnection between the store managers, and the perishable managers (meat and produce managers). The meat and produce managers report directly to the district managers of their prospective departments. However, the store managers are responsible for the daily operations of the entire store. This disconnect in itself is a major disruption in productivity. The District Director was the only person in the work breakdown structure that knew what was going on in his district within all sections of every store. When only one person knows all aspects of an operation it becomes difficult for that operation to function as a whole in the absence of that individual. By adopting the realign...

...Peapod OnlineGrocery Case Analysis
Abstract
This paper explores Peapod OnlineGrocery (2008) and its possibilities for success and failure based on several types of consumer behaviors. Most analysts do not expect the onlinegrocery business to become more popular than the 8 to 10 percent of consumers that are estimated to purchase their products online. Parkinson, one of the founders of Peapod could not disagree more. “He states that this strategy can leverage the buying power of Ahold to make higher volume, lower priced purchases, lower distribution and transportation costs” ( Peter &amp; Olson, 2010). The types of consumers attracted to onlinegrocery shopping are also discussed as well as why these consumers find onlinegrocery services to be convenient.
Peapod Grocery Case Analysis

Window Shopping verses Screen Shopping
Shopping online and by store are similar but can have differences including: what is easier for the consumer, the risks, special deals, and whatever you might be looking for. Shopping can be experienced in different ways. Some people enjoy the process of browsing the Internet, and some people enjoy browsing from rack to rack or shelf to shelf for bargains. There is not a right and wrong answer to which is the best way to shop. Everyone is different, and the bargains are different! Whether they are shopping for new or used, rare or common, or even items that you are not even planning on buying, because of impulse, shopping can be enjoyed by anyone!
The first thing to think about is everyone is either his or her own individual person. Most people can have different needs physically and mentally. Many situations should be taken into consideration such as physical ability, enjoyment, and your ability to surf and browse the Internet. Many people struggle with experiencing issues such as handicap, blind, or even being deaf, that is if it is an auction. Something as simple as being able to walk, can make a difference on someone’s ability to go from store to store with ease. Not all stores are one hundred...
